The Cat's Meow!

At the end of last week, a parcel was delivered to me here in Canada, from Portland, Oregon U.S.A.
It was from Jennifer of
 "PLUSHPUSSYCAT".

 I HAD WON FIRST PRIZE IN HER MOST RECENT GIVEAWAY!
( HOOORAY FOR ME!!!! :D )

 Inside was one of Jennifer's cute custom cards and a lovely hand-written note.  It was such a pleasure to read and I thoroughly enjoyed it, Thank You Jennifer. :)) Of course, there was also a little box of goodies that I couldn't wait to open and see!

Jennifer, had packaged everything very neatly inside and into groups and the first things I saw were some sweet little tea towels.  I have taken everything out so that you can see them better. 
How Exciting!  

I LOVE THESE LITTLE POUND CAKES!
Jennifer has forwarded a lovely little china cake stand and a little glass pitcher that has a really delicate and pretty shape but is very difficult to photograph well, and also two little cookbooks
entitled
"Home Baking Made Easy" and "Vintage Cakes"
Two thumbs up!

Here again are the pound cakes, and an ADDITIONAL tiny extra gooey chocolate cake, now sitting on a white and red polka dot doily.  There is also a serving of some cute iced chocolate brownies.  There were 4 brownies until one of them decided to disappear and take a short walk as I took this picture.  I guess it wanted to have a quick look around my studio, ....
 but now, ( gratefully), he is back on the plate again. :)) 
There is also, as you can see, a small pink lace trimmed tea towel, and a tin heart- shaped cookie cutter.... So cute!
 It is all displayed on a larger square-cut paper doily of rosey pink with white polka dots which makes such a charming "girly" presentation;
wouldn't you agree?  

I just love how Jennifer has made these two little cakes!  I think it is so delightful to have them wrapped in a thin strip of parchment paper and then tied so prettily with the red string.  It is such a wonderful
FINISHING TOUCH

And I should mention that
the icing on both of the cakes is
 Mouth-wateringly PERFECT!

Inside the box there is also 5 assorted
Vintage Style tea towels.
Two of the tea towels are tied together with more red string and a pretty little bow.
This tiny detail makes a world of difference
 and
 I KNOW THAT TYING THAT BOW WAS NOT THAT EASY!
 our big fingers always get in the way
(smiles)

And a Nativity scene
( joy to the world! )

Jennifer also sent along a package of white paper roses, a tiny church and a baby doll.
Funny enough, I had, ( not long ago) completely depleted my package of paper roses and couldn't find any more so this new delivery will come in handy right away!

Good Timing Jennifer! 

And at the very bottom of the box were these.....
7 Stunning Vintage Perfume Labels
(How did she know.....?!!!!)
LOVE THEM
:D

SO A BIG 
THANK YOU to
 PLUSHPUSSYCAT!
THESE GIFTS ARE
PURRRR-FECT
AND FOR ME,
THEY'RE TRULY CAT'S MEOOOOW!
:D
